about

I wrote this song quite awhile ago and it was always meant to be an acoustic song but, I tried this electric version and found myself unable to get it out of my head. It's in the same structure as "As You Dance Around The Room" so I thought it fitting on the single.

lyrics

Did you finally come clean?
Have you thought of everything?
Did you hear me right
When I said goodnight?
Will you watch me sleep?
Terrorize my dreams
I'm not the one to confuse
I'm the one you didn't choose

So now you're back again
Oh, and you need a friend
But baby that's not me
No, I understand
That you need a man
But baby that's not me

Are you blaming me?
'Cause you blame me for everything
Am I ever home?
Through no fault of my own
Love is your excuse
So is your abuse
What would you have me then
Comin' again and again and again

And you don't know why
You always sit and cry
I would but that's not me
I start to comprehend
I'm not your only friend
You're leaving without me
